Chapter 45 The Second Star Skill
Sitting on a bench in the park, Yang Yang gently rubbed the photo in his hand.
In the photo, he is wearing Almere's No. 9 jersey with a particularly bright smile. Standing next to Van Basten in a suit and leather shoes, the legendary Dutch star put his hand on his outer shoulder with a wide smile.
The only fly in the ointment is that Yang Yang in the photo looks a bit restrained. Although there is no scissor hand that has been unearthed, the hands give people a feeling that there is nowhere to put them, which easily reminds Yang Yang of seeing his idol that night. mood at the time.
There is Van Basten's signature on the photo, and the writing is so fast that I can't understand it at all, but I always think it's amazing.
Arroyo helped him mount a film on the outside of the photo for him to treasure.
He really intends to take this photo as a family heirloom. In the future, no matter whether he can play well or not, he can take this photo and show it off to his children and grandchildren. I also met Van Basten back then. .
Radru and Arroyo sat on the side and watched Yang Yang's expression silently. Seeing that he put the photo away in the backpack, they looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
Van Basten is a legend in world football, and countless people have fallen for him, including themselves.
In the world of professional football, the power of idols is always influencing generations after generations.
Perhaps, people are obsessed with Van Basten now, but in the future there will be countless people who are obsessed with Van der Vaart, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Robben and Sneijder, who knows?
"Did Louis really say that?" Yang Yang asked with concern.
Just now, Radru has conveyed to Yang Yang the results of the morning sports high-level meeting, and Ajax hopes that he can participate in the talent day selection activities as originally planned.
Of course, in order to avoid Yang Yang's misunderstanding, Radru not only mentioned Ajax's decision to sign with him after the Genius Day event, but also mentioned the benefits of participating in the Genius Day selection. As long as he can perform well, he will have the opportunity to enter directly. Van Basten coached the second team, which was a rare shortcut for him.
Entering the youth training echelon, even if it is a leapfrog, it will take at least one or two years to enter the second team. It is difficult to say whether Van Basten is still there or not. This shortcut is very attractive to Yang Yang.
Yang Yang understands that Van Gaal is someone who knows his mind, and also knows that he is a fan of Van Basten and Ronaldo, which is why he showed him this way, and at the same time, he may not have tested him and inspired his thoughts.
It seems that the old man who always refuses people thousands of miles away on the surface is not necessarily as serious and severe as he seems on the surface.
"That's exactly what he said." Radru nodded.
Yang Yang snorted, "Okay, you help me convey it to Louis, just say I agree with his arrangement."
Radru and Arroyo were overjoyed after hearing this, which meant that Yang Yang decided to enter the youth training camp of Ajax.
"In addition, please help me convey one more sentence, just say congratulations on his appointment as Ajax technical director, I believe we will meet again soon, and please help me convey my thanks to Marko."
When it came to the end, Yang Yang patted his backpack, which meant to thank Van Basten for his signature on the photo.
For him, it was a precious gift.
From the moment he played, he had heard the name of Van Basten, and over the years, he had dreamed of the two idols of Van Basten and Ronaldo, hoping to have the opportunity to compete with them.
Now, there is no hope for Van Basten, and Ronaldo is far away in Real Madrid, but if there is a chance to play under Van Basten and receive his training, it will be a dream that has come true for many years.
"Okay, we'll help you pass it on."
"thanks."
"If you think it is necessary, we can help you skip the first stage of the test and go directly to the second stage of the group competition during the talent day selection." Radru suggested.
Yang Yang thought about it for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, thank you, since you have participated, then follow the rules. I am with two teammates. I would also like to take this opportunity to see if I have had any problems in the past two months. progress."
Radlu and Arroyo glanced at each other, and both showed satisfaction, obviously feeling Yang Yang's confidence.
Based on Yang Yang's assessment results in Almere, he can roughly reach the middle and upper levels in Ajax's talent day selection activity.
But judging from Yang Yang's hard work and progress in the past few months, it might be possible to create unexpected surprises. If this is the case, it will also be beneficial to the two of them who have been recommending Yang Yang.
"Well, I will inform you in advance when the time comes. If you need any help, you can call us."
…………
…………
After sending Radru and Arroyo away, Yang Yang also got up to pack up and returned to the Chinese restaurant.
Uncle Shen Ming also knows that Yang Yang has always been very opinionated, and now deciding to join the Ajax youth training camp is indeed a very good choice. Can play for the Ajax first team.
In this regard, Yang Yang has no detailed plan, after all, he is only sixteen years old.
Even Ajax, which has always been known for attaching importance to youth training and promoting young players, is undoubtedly extremely difficult to play for the first team at the age of 16 or 17, even for a super genius like Van der Vaart. The team was seventeen years old when they played, and only played one game in the first season.
And Ryan Babel, a recognized talent in the youth academy, has never made his debut for the first team.
Therefore, Yang Yang is very self-aware and knows that the most important thing for him now is not to rely on the first team, but to concentrate on improving his strength, to gain a firm foothold in the youth team as soon as possible, and it is best to enter Van Basten's second team.
Having clarified his short-term goals, Yang Yang quickly turned his attention to the upcoming talent day selection.
He knows Van Gaal's intentions, and naturally hopes to achieve good results in this activity, so he needs to fill his shortcomings as soon as possible.
"Can I learn the second star skill?"
When he returned home for a lunch break, Yang Yang entered the super training ground and asked Lao Bing with concern in the first sentence.
In the past two or three months, he has been immersed in training [Ronaldo's Assault], and most of the time is spent training the pendulum. Other techniques in Assault, such as continuous change of direction to pull the ball.
But now, with his progress, especially Almere's performance in the amateur competition, Yang Yang has gradually exposed more problems, such as his basic skills, which is his biggest shortcoming.
Even now, Yang Yang still practices the ball every day. No matter where he goes, as long as the conditions allow, he will run the ball instead of riding in a car. The purpose is to buy as much time as possible to train.
There is no problem with the ball feel, but the first stop is still too weak, especially when faced with pressing pressure.
The difficulty of stopping the ball in the static state and the moving state is completely different, and the latter is many times more difficult than the former.
Therefore, Lao Bing integrates Yang Yang's basic skills training into all aspects of daily training. For example, when kicking a ball against a wall, there are many items that have been trained to stop the ball with the first kick, and it is still a dynamic kick to stop the ball.
But if he wants to improve his basic skills in sports, especially in high-intensity pressing and pressing, Yang Yang still needs more time.
This is also not able to improve rapidly in the short term.
But when playing amateur games, Yang Yang has clearly felt his bottleneck, and he needs to further improve himself.
"Okay." Lao Bing's faint voice sounded in his ear, "What do you want to learn?"
"Do you have any good suggestions for my current weakness?" Yang Yang asked.
"You have a lot of weak links, the first stop, the pass, the cross, the shot... It seems that except for one-on-one breakthroughs, other aspects are very weak."
"Can you be a little more euphemistic?" Yang Yang's face was full of black lines. Isn't this too frank and direct?
"I'm only telling the truth."
"Okay." Yang Yang reluctantly spread his hands, "Then analyze it for me."
"If you stop the ball, Bergkamp's stopping is very good. If you pass the ball, there are also many players with very deep passing skills, which are divided into long and short passes. If you shoot, it must be Van Basten. There are quite a few, but Beckham has his own uniqueness in his crosses from the right, which can be called the number one."
These links are the big shortcomings exposed by Yang Yang, and they are also aspects that he needs to work hard to improve in the future.
Bergkamp's stopping is indeed very good, and according to Van Gaal, his stopping and skills are also obtained by training against the wall, but this requires a lot of basic skills, and the basic skills have not been improved. To a certain extent, reluctant training is definitely more effective with less effort.
For Yang Yang, the first stop the ball is not good has become his label. After understanding his characteristics, many teammates try to pass the ball in front of him as much as possible and let him chase it, which can maximize the avoidance of the ball. Open up his weakness.
Yang Yang's training time is limited every day. A lot of basic training takes up most of the time, and the [Ronaldo's Assault] that he relies on also needs to be practiced and refined. I won’t talk about getting twice the result with half the effort, but it may affect other aspects of training, which will outweigh the gains.
Of course, stopping the ball needs to be practiced sooner or later. A subtle first kick is too important for a professional player to play on the court. It is impossible not to practice, but it is necessary to wait until the basic skills have been refined to a certain extent and have enough time. Then put in hard work.
Passing is not Yang Yang's current preference. After all, he is currently positioned as a wing breaker, and he will continue to play this role in Ajax.
As for shooting, I am afraid that Yang Yang is difficult to get this permission at present. It may be OK in Almere, but in Ajax, he still has to start from the role of the wing breaker, and it is impossible for the team to give him such a role. Right to fire.
It is said that in the first team of Ajax, even Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Van der Vaart have no such power.
Then there are only a handful of options left.
For Yang Yang, the only thing that can improve his competitiveness in a short period of time is undoubtedly the pass.
